Year 6 Non-chronological reports on World War Two

We have really enjoyed writing our first full piece on our new topic World War Two.  We spent several lessons researching the key aspects of The Blitz – the period London was heavily bombed during the war – in particular focusing on: the actual bombing raids, air raid shelters and evacuees.  We spent time reading information, making notes and then developing them into our own informative paragraphs – structured with different subheadings.  The key skills were using topic based vocabulary, varying our sentence openers, writing in the third person and past tense.
